With rankings based on sales growth between 2003 and 2005, Apertio achieved second place by showing an incredible growth rate of 300 percent - against the league table average of 91 percent. The combined sales of the companies listed in the top 100 totalled over £2.1billion.

Established in 2002, Apertio has expanded rapidly as telecommunications operators adopt its technology to address the rising cost and complexity of conventional network infrastructure, while developing new suitable platforms to deliver mass market entertainment and business services to mobile users.

This year Apertio has added more of the world’s largest and fastest growing telecommunications service providers, including T-Mobile and Vodafone to its client portfolio.

"The Sunday Times Tech Track 100 provides a great barometer for the health of the UK technology sector and we’re delighted to be in such a high position in the league," said Paul Magelli, CEO and co-founder of Apertio. "The UK is a hotbed of telecoms talent and we’re one of a number of world beating companies that are driving technology forward to specifically address the business issues facing our customers. This is the key to company growth and longevity in the technology sector, and with our pipeline of new deals, we are confident of building on our current success."
